    Football fans sometimes act like guys that are missing old girlfriends. We see an athletic quarterback and we say "Oh my gosh, it's Cam Newton". We see a fast, undersized receiver and we say "Look, it's Steve Smith". And yes, it's possible that someone could come out who's as good as those guys, but we need to be really careful about projecting.

    Two more came out today. Fourteen lawsuits have already been filed, with potentially ten more in the pipeline.
  3. Mr. Scot
    I'm not so sure about that. Pre #metoo I could see it, but these days it's tougher to imagine, especially with 24 accusers. Latest lawsuits are characterizing him as a serial predator, and there is still the possibility of police involvement.

    Yeah, The Athletic is subscription only. Worth it, though. I think they've got a dollar a month special on right now.
  5. Mr. Scot
    Are you a subscriber?

    Gurley is a free agent. There was a rumor that we worked him out but it came from a phony source.
  7. Mr. Scot
    Sewell went #5 to the Bengals in this mock.
  8. Mr. Scot
    Perhaps should have put this in the draft sub forum but the mods can move it if they're so inclined.

    Lance isn't Newton. Sometimes I think people forget just how special an athlete Cam Newton was.
  10. Mr. Scot
    From what I've read, he is (at least for the moment) the starter in Atlanta. It's possible he chose the Falcons for that reason. I honestly think that's a mistake. Based on what I saw of him last year, he's much better suited to be a top end backup than a full time starter.
  11. Mr. Scot
    A trade up would make it more likely.
  12. Mr. Scot
    Maybe if we play him early in the season. By season's end last year, he couldn't handle a full starter's load anymore. We were runningback by committee at that point.
  13. Mr. Scot
    Like I said, you can have those things and fail. However, you can't not have those things and succeed.
  14. Mr. Scot
    Conducted by the beat writers of the respective teams... Four quarterbacks taken in the first four picks, Broncos trade up to take Lance at pick #3, Falcons take Fields, Mac Jones falls to the Bears, Panthers get Kyle Pitts.
  15. Mr. Scot
    Not so much "dunked on" as "misquoted". Verge said Tepper would be interested again if Watson was cleared. And FYI, more accusers have come forward. The count is now at 24, with 14 lawsuits filed and 10 still pending.
  16. Mr. Scot
    He's gonna need 24 good cases. Two new accusers have come out. The count for lawsuits officially filed is at 14.
  17. Mr. Scot
    They are, but there's more to it as well. You can have all of those things and still not be a great quarterback.
  18. Mr. Scot
    I've never seen the work of people who know what they're doing be improved upon by asking for advice from someone who doesn't.
  19. Mr. Scot
    One or two analysts have suggested this might be a good indicator of whether or not the Seahawks are willing to let Wilson have more input on their roster. If I recall correctly, Wilson also advocated the signing of Josh Gordon.
  20. Mr. Scot
    No argument that he kept Marty too long, but he's gone now. Just have to wait and see how well Rhule and Fitterer work together.
  21. Mr. Scot
    He could "weigh in" with the team's football people, but I'd rather he didn't.
  22. Mr. Scot
    The most important things you need to play in the current Panthers system are accuracy, intelligence and the ability to make good reads. Does Darnold have those things? been a while since I've read a scouting report on him so I couldn't say.
  23. Mr. Scot
    Tepper's not the guy making our free agency decisions. (nor should he be)
  24. Mr. Scot
    I don't know if I'm ready to go that far yet. Pretty comfortable saying that, barring a miracle, it's not gonna be Watson.
  25. Mr. Scot
    As in "the Panthers would need for Watson to be exonerated (not likely to happen anytime soon, if it happens at all) before they could agree to trade for him."
